Independence Day Celebrated In Prayer

Happy Independence Day! (Pardon to those readers in other countries–this is a special day for those of us in the United States of America.) Two hundred and thirty years ago marks the beginning of the nation we live in. There have been astounding changes in our country since then. We have overcome slavery, civil war, depressions, wars, and good times. In spite of our failings we have remained a beacon of freedom, especially religious freedom, to the world. Why? I believe it is because of the Grace of God. What should be our response? Prayer. This page from Christianity Today reports on the activities of prayer for the country occurring not only today, but throughout the year. We must not neglect our responsibilities in this matter. Thank God today for his blessings and pray for our repentance and His mercy. God Bless America! You can contact Christianity Today at info@christiantoday.com.
